Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
VMs (VirtualBox 7.0.6) are running successfully with host OS macOS Ventura 13.2 but failing with macOS Ventura 13.3.
I have opened a ticket at https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/21563
Log attached (same log as attached to the ticket) for a Debian VM, but I am getting this crash with Windows VMs as well.
I will hold off upgrading my main host to 13.3 until I have a way forward.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
I don't expect to personally find the background reason for this Guru Meditation, but for my curiosity, could you provide another VBox.log file for comparison while running under macOS Ventura 13.2?

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Shoud have thought of that myself
I ran the VM under 13.2.1 until I saw the Debian login screen then shut it down immediately.
VBox-13.2.1.log attached.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Thanks for the additional log file!
The logs show no significant difference in the virtual hardware initialization part. It all happened when the first (U)EFI BIOS modules were loaded and run:

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Seems that only VMs with UEFI configuration are affected. My "Bios" VMs are running without any problems. Windows 11 with UEFI crashed

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Confirmed, after updating my host to Ventura 13.3, two Win10 guest VMs start up normally, but the Win11 (with EFI enabled) does not.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
I am having exactly the same issue, Intel MBP running VirtualBox 7.0.6.
Worked perfectly with 13.2. Windows 11 VM with UEFI bios enabled -> now getting Guru meditation.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
A bugfix in the VirtualBox test builds 7.0.7r156678 (and newer) is supposed to fix this issue (at least partially). Please give it a try and report back!

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Confirmed (again), after installing test build 7.0.7r156678, I am again able to successfully boot into my Win11 VM. Don't have other EFI VMs to test, but I'd guess that those should be fine as well.
Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
Running 7.0.7r156678 allows me to boot Windows 11 with EFI but autoscaling on the iMac 4k display causes the system to freeze. Moving the vm display to an external monitor works though.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
The Windows%2011-2023-04-07-00-49-04.log file contains error messages regarding NEMHCNotifyHandlerPhysicalDeregister function, which belongs to the memory management and could indicate a follow-up problem. Please add your information to 21563.

Re: Guru meditation with macOS Ventura 13.3
I didn't follow my own advice... and I updated my Mac during the semester (I'm a professor). I can confirm that on MacOS 13.3.1, with EFI based Virtual Machines, my old Virtual Box broke. I installed the prerelease version of VirtualBox, 7.0.7 r156678 and my VMs are running again and things appear to work fine.
Thank you for the fix. I'll post back here if I run into any trouble with the prerelease version. I'd love for you folks to sign it so I can re-enable System Integrity Protection.
Very Respectfully,
Mark

We are not the developers, just users like yourself, so we have no say in signing the code.Practical Knowledge wrote:I'd love for you folks to sign it so I can re-enable System Integrity Protection.
However, VirtualBox 7.0.x is not installing any kernel extensions so you should be able to install/run the code with SIP enabled. It works for me but others may have differing opinions.
